A New York Times Bestseller, this novel offers a profound and original perspective on the legend of Achilles and the Trojan War. It is a tale woven with gods, kings, immortal fame, and the complexities of the human heart.

This literary feat brilliantly reimagines Homer's The Iliad. It unfolds as an action-packed adventure and an epic love story, conceived and executed with masterful skill. Fans of historical fiction and compelling narratives will find themselves captivated by this journey back to ancient Greece during the Age of Heroes.

The narrative is presented through the eyes of Patroclus, offering a unique and enthralling retelling of The Iliad and its preceding events. The characterization of the goddess Thetis, in particular, is noted for its authentic savagery and chilling portrayal of antiquity, making it a truly unforgettable read.
